growing watched
My growing up years, we watched 'Happy Days,' every night. I don't know what was reruns and what was new.
growing-up race white
Traditionally, I have no right to talk about race. I'm white; I didn't grow up in an all-black neighborhood. But the license I see for myself is I'm a member of the world.
girl growing-up waiting
Don't tell girls they can be anything they want when they grow up. Because it would have never occurred to them that they couldn't. It's like saying, 'Hey, when you get in the shower, I'm not gonna read your diary.' 'Wait--are you gonna read my diary?' 'No! I said I'm not gonna read your diary. Go take a shower!'
growing-up children taken
Growing up, I always loved Disney movies, but the first movie I remember seeing is 'Sleepers,' so I wasn't really taken to children's movies.
girl growing-up powerful
We need to stop telling girls they can be anything they want when they grow up. Because it would have never occurred to them that they couldn't.
angle comics joke though watch
I like my messiness on stage, though I watch comics who come at a joke from every angle and I think, 'Yeah! That's how it's done!' But for me it's the audience. If I feel connected to them, I have so much fun, and if not, it stinks.
crazy funny prices
This is crazy Donald. When I see the prices at the mall, I just want to vomit.
bunch comics eat life living ready sets three wake york
I'm doing a lot of stand-up, but not like when you're living in New York and you can do three sets a night and it's your life, and you sleep all day and you wake up and you eat with a bunch of other comics and then get ready for the night.
defend
I never defend my material. Comedy is subjective.
I'm not the marrying type, but I always want to be with someone who is a fan.
funny humorous interests planning sounds trying
Oh, this sounds so obnoxious, ... I'm not planning anything out. I'm just trying to be funny. I don't think any of it's particularly deep. It's just what interests me.
god
What are the chances there is a God, really?
coke courtney crazy curious love violent
You got it, doll, I was curious to see which Courtney Love was going to show up: the smeared-lipstick crazy coke whore or the violent smeared-lipstick crazy coke whore.
camp lots
As a kid, I was terrified. I was a bed wetter, and I had to go to sleepaway camp every summer, which was humiliating and terrifying. I had lots of insecurities and scaredness.
